Speed answers Sherry Rogers,

Sherry states, "My husband has a head horse, 11 yrs old, rodeoed on, seasoned. No matter where you haul him or in the practice pen he is reluctant to get in the corner sometimes. Kicks his butt out and does not want to set back up in the corner, he does not jam him in the corner. No other issues except not wanting to get in the corner sometimes."
